STRUCK BY A CARRIAGE. Mrs. Henrietta Arnold Knocked Down and Slightly Injured a‘ Fourth and Market. Mrs. Henrietta Arnold, residing at the Wiison House, 775 Mission street, was knocked down by a team while crossing Market street at the intersection of Fourth and Stockton, yesterday after- noon, and escaped with a few insignificant bruises and a shock to her nervous system that may confine her to ker bed for a day or two. According to Policeman Farley, who was on duty gt the crossing, quite a number of ve- hicles, among them the private carriage | of John D. Spreckels, driven by his coachman, and containing Mr. Spreckels’ two daughters, approached the spot at the same time. Farley had piloted some ladies across the street when he heard a shout and turned to see Mrs. Arnold lying on the pavement almost beside him and alongside the Spreckels carriage. Mrs. Arnold had evidently attempted to follow the officer across the strect and was struck by the whiffletree, throwin her to the ground. The officer assiste her to the drug store at the corner_of Market and Stockton streets, where Dr. J. A. Nelson made an examination, and finding she was not seriously Injured, summoned a carriage and removed her to Yer lodgings. Mr. Spreckels was notified of the acci- dent, and at once sent Dr. Winterberg to ;-attend to Mrs. Arnold. The two phy- | sicians made a careful examination and - found that her Injurles were trivial, the t painful being a brulsed toe, caused of the horses stepping on it. One . Arnold’s fingers was also brufsed, her right shoulder sprained and the skifi scraped from her knees when she fell. As she was quite hysterical she was placed In bed and advised to remain thers until she recovered her composure. Officer Farley said the team was being @riven at an ordinary gait and no blame could be attached to the driver, as it was palpably an accident. The coach- man made a statement of the affair to the officer and was allowed to proceed . without detention. The scene of the ac- cident is one of the most dangerous cross- . ings in town. —_— it Teachers’ Aid Society. The Teachers’ Mutual Aid Soclety held its semi-annual meeting yesterday after- noon at Union square Hall. There was a large attendance. The reports of the officers showed the society to be in a flourishing condition. The new board of directors was duly in- stalled, and was as follows: Miss Hackett of Webster School, Miss Laura T. Fowler of the by | Normal, M. Gallagher of the Denman, Mrs. M. O'Neal of Laguna Honda, Mrs Chalmers of Rincon Grammar, Miss Muc- cord_ of Webster, Miss Earle of Dud- ley Stone, Miss Jories of Agassiz School, Miss Tobin of Moulder School, Miss Fitzsimmons of Mission Grammar, Miss Douglas of the Ham- ilton Grammar. After organizing they re-elected the follow- ing officers: Miss Laura T. Fowler, president; Mrs, M. O'Neal, vice-president: Miss Alice M. @'Arcy, treasurer: Miss N. C. Haswell, finan- clal secretary; Miss M. E.

Intelligence has just been received that Arthur White dled in St. Louls last Fri- day. Mr. White was but 2 years of age, but for all that was oneof the best-known turtmen in the West. He was a member of the well-known racing firm of White & Clark, and came to California about | four years ago, bringing Whitestone, | Clara White and many others to this | coast.

Surgeon Choate Makes a Statement Regarding the Typhoid Fever Cases in the Seventh Cal- ifornia Regiment. The United States transport steamer Scandia will sail this morning at about 10:30 for Honolulu and Manila.

Mr. White's death was caused by consumption, whicn began to assert itself about two years ago. He went to San Antonio, Texas, a year ago to recuperate. The trip did him a world of good, but with a return of | health came a lack of care for himself, with the result that the popular young St. Loufs turfman passed away at the | home of his parents.

Bruen, who did the Starting the first week of the Hawthorne meeting. The re- sult will probably be the retirement of the veteran to the home of the ‘“‘used-to- be’s. Bruen is evidently an “‘{ser.” Jockey Tommy Burns bids fair to cause | a’lot of trouble for the Turf Congress | folks. The signature of his parents is | attached to one contract too many for the | seasons of 1899 and 19%¢. One is to a con- | tract with Thomas Hurns of I inols, the other to one with John W. Schorr & Son of Memphis, Tenn. It was Hurns _who _‘“de- veloped” the now famous rider. Under that contract Tommy is to receive but $2500 a year; under the Schorr contract | 35000 per season as a retainer. Burns is | only I7 years of age, and cannot write his | own name; but it seems his Canadian arents write altogether too much—at | cast as far as signatures on riding con- tracts are concerned. Just who will get Burng' services is enigmatical, but the | boy declares he will never throw a leg | over another horse for Hurns, however | the Turf Congress law unravelers may decide. The California Jockey Club managers could get together and dish up a few new stakes and erase a number from their stake books. The ones just an- nounced are so old and worn that one would_think the type had been electroed | and the club did not want to throw away the plates. The big stakes—those | worth over §20—are all right, but those worth any less are not going to have any more drawlng power on turfmen now | on the other side of the Rockles than a | bread-and-milk poultice on a mule's sore | shin. It was announced here last sum- | mer that $1000 and $1250 races, dignifled | with the name “stake.’ were things of | the past—an unpieasant memory merely Yet just thirteen of these are offered. In not one of these stakes mentioned is | the winner's share over $1000, and one | race worth.$5000 is ten times as good when | drawing cards are desired as these measly | affairs designated ‘“stakes.” And then, t00, the conditions in most of these events | will not suit the up-to-date turfmen of the present. Those now on the Eastern side of the ridge will insist on the con-| ditions reading “$— added.” and not “a sufficient sum_ will be_added to make the stake worth $—." They will not stand “guaranteed stakes” any longer, for club members seldom havento go down into thelr jeans to make good as much as they would have to in an ordinary sell- | ing race. In short, the only kind of | ke worth offering is one worth from have as many starters in them by half as a race for the common selling platers, and are, therefore, not quite as interest- ing. It was declared here last summer that the number of stakes were to be cut down and those ziven would b2 worth any turfman’'s while, but it seems the change from last season is so slight it would take a powerful microscope to dis- cern it.

It appears that he is not cul- pable of any intentional embezzlement, as he has not been paid the money that | he was charged with embezzling. Young states that he has friends at home who will present his case direct to Secretary Alger,and that he will soon be out of the penitentiary. General Miller says that any ameliorating circumstances in the case will be forwarded by him to the Ad- Jjutant General at Washington. ciimil) e THE DlgISION HOSPITAL.

Major Matthews, in charge of the Di- visfon Hospital, stated yesterday that fif- teen of the trained female nurses com- menced work yesterday and that he hoped by Monday to ha thirty, the en- tire number contracted for by the Gov- ernment, at work. He anticipates no in- convenience because of the number of stewards that left the hospital yesterday to go to Manila, and declares that by the first of the week he will have the big hos- ital force in better working order than t has been heretofore.

The percentage of actual fever patients ds small. The investiga- tion is not called for because of the num- ber of cases, but because of the offense in not notifying the proper authorities. As far as that goes, one case of fever in the regiment and that not reported would call for the same investigation. At pres- ent I am not prepared to say who is to blame, if any one. BOARD OF SURVEY.

Major Choate, surgeon of the Seventh history of the typhojd fever patients of the command: To the Editor—In regard to the statement relative to the 'existence of tvphoid fever in the Seventh California Regiment, I will state | that our regiment was sent to Camp Merritt on May 28. On June 1 two cases of typhold fever developed, viz: Lieutenant Bates and Private Wood. These were tr.nsierred to the French Hospital. On_June 25 Lieutenant Greenleaf and Private Tyson were taken with typhold and were transferred to the Marine ospital. Two more cases developed during June, and since then typhoid patients have come in at the rate of about one a_week until August 12, since which time they have devel- oped at the rate of about two per day. During @ part of this time malarial fever has also been very prevalent, and oftentimes it has re- quired several days' observation to determine whether a patient was afflicted with typhoid or malarial fever. As soon as typhoid has been dlagnosed the patlents have been sent to either the Division Field Hospital or to one of the other hospitals, which have g0 gener- ously offered to care for the sick soldiers. There were not sixteen cases sent to the Diviston Field Hospital on August 24, with & diagnosis of typhold fever, as has been stated. Four of the thirty cases sent were diagnosed as typhoid fever, elght more were marked ty hoid fever followed by a question mark, shov- ng that they were still under observation and diagnosis not certain; two or three malarial fever; the others for sickness of other kinds. Eleven of the fever patients were received |im the hocpital within the three-day limit seribed by orders from headquarters. The reaton why o many had accumulated*in the Regimental Hospital was that the Divis- fon Field Hospital notified us about August 15 not to send any more patients than wag, ab- solutely necessary, as they were overcrowded and forced to put the sick in tents. The cases of typhoid developed almost entirely in one section of the camp, the reason for which was shown the day before we moved, August 23, when @ mase of filthy refuse of various Kkinds was uncovered while the men were exc vating for new sinks. This refuse had ev dently been burled by the former occupants of the tract. - There has been no reason for, mor attempt at, concealment of the unsanitary and un- healthy conditions of the camp, a8 our morn- ing reports from the first day in Camp Merritt until the present time will show. In regard to the megiment remaining at Camp Merritt, it is to be borne in mind that since the order to moye to the Presidio some four weeks ago was revoked by Major General Merriam because it had been decided to send the regiment to Manila on the Arizona or the Scandfa, it has remained there In constant ex- pectation of soon belng ordered aboard ship. and for this renson I have not personally urged our removal.

The Third Battalion of the Twenty-third Infantry, with the Oregon recruits at- tached, moved from the pest hole yester- day morning over to the Presidio, where they went into camp upon the site for- merly occupied by the battalion of en- gineers. Private Charles J. Lynch, Company K, First Washington Regiment, died at the post hospital at 12 o'clock Thursday night, of injuries received By falling down' the stairs In_ his quarters. Captain. W. H. McKittrick, son-in-law of General Shafter, was at the Presidio yesterday.

Private Davis of Com- pany. L was before the court, and his case was finished, and that of Private Anderson of the same company was be- gun. The sessions are secret, and the verdict will not be made known until it has been approved or disapproved by the commanding officer. The evidence so far has not sustained the charges. The board of officers appointed to assess the dam- ages in the case were also in secret ses- sion yesterday, and examined Major Cheatham and two house contractors. It is their duty to fix the blame as a whole and to assess the amount of the damage. This board will not complete its work for some time. Colonel Funston of the Twentieth Kan- £as has threatened to put Lieutenant Col- onel Little under arrest for a %iolation of the sixty-second article of war, which treats of conduct prejudicial to military discipline. Charges of incompetency were some time ago made against Little, but were dropped on account of his sickness. It seems that recently Little made cer- tain recommendations as to the filling of vacancies in the regiment. This angered Colonel Funston, who claims this pre- rogative, and had himself already made recommendations.” Funston proposes to find out who is really the colonel of the regiment. THE POTRERO PICNIC.
